stair window in chamfered surround. Former door, with chamfered surround and
flattened triangular head cut in monolithic lintel, blocked and C20 window

set-back C17 extension with C20 ground floor window. Left return has blocked
1st floor loop and corbel for earlier chimney. Right gable rendered, altered
ground floor door. Rear elevation has blocked doorway with window inserted
